To learn as indicated in the latter four letters Is to build, show, and earn respect for others Without impinging or letting your needs smother You must be detached from their lives, they are not a cover It demonstrates your learning already in motion, but never over So by being ever present, ever giving,
ever curious, ever understanding, ever kind These attributes in turn open up and elevate the mind To the situations of others, what they wish and need To function in this world, to be allowed space and time to breath In order that they have the strength
Steadfast tenacity to carry out their life's deeds Hold a reign on all self-interested needs
As unreasonable expectations always impede Yearn to learn in everything you do,
It will always hold you in good stead, To know exactly where your priorities should always be lead.
